Ghost of Clough got a reaction from Carnero in January Window
RB and LB, so we no longer have CMs playing in those positions. Frees them up to play where they should be.
Winger - competition for Mendez-Laing, Barkhuizen and Dobbin. Also means we won't be bringing a raw CF on and playing him on the wing.
The only other one would be a CF to replace Osula, but not too important due to him only being 3rd choice CF. The previous 3 positions are to add depth, this would be to improve the quality in the squad. Osula's only started 3 league games (when Collins was suspended and McGoldrick was injured). Despite scoring 5 and assisting 1 in his 6 starts in all competitions, he hasn't had any meaningful contribution off the bench. If we did get an upgrade, it would have to be someone who is ready.

I guess can still be correct (and in this instance it was), but decisions shouldn't be made off guesswork.
Like I said, none of them spotted it. The 4th official guessed at what happened.

How does that work? Player is fouled as he makes a pass to someone who is offside. Ref missed the offside so gives advantage, only for him to notice the linos flag and award the offside.

There's no chance the 4th official saw anything. Someone guessed, or went off the word of an Accrington player.
It also doesn't change the fact that they all missed the rugby tackle on Osula just a couple of seconds earlier. If that was given, there wouldn't have been a kick or red card.

Ghost of Clough got a reaction from Steve How Hard? in Cashin
He might be small for a CB, but no CB on L1 wins more headers per game than Cashin.
Height is less important in the PL anyway, with the best CB only winning half as many headers in that division as Cashin does. Unsurprisingly, Mitrovic is the most aerially dominant player in the PL. He didn't get anything out of Cashin when they faced each other last season.

Cashin (and Dobbin) made the Whoscored TotW too.
Cashin is the Whoscored player of the season as things stand.

He's received 3 red cards since he first played U18 football (181 games). The only red in professional football (109 games) was when the West Brom player faked being stamped on.
